Friday we had some of our friends over for cards. As usually when we gather, everyone brings their beverage of choice (usually wine) and a food contribution. Appetizer/finger food was to be served, so I baked a brie in dough and wrapped cocktail wienies in the extra dough and baked them up.
Saturday evening we went to friends house for dinner and cards. I baked a creamy pear pie...a big hit!
I needed a hostess gift and didn't feel like running into town to shop for one, so I headed up to my quilt room after the pie was in the oven. I don't have a big stash and have just recently added a few pieces of Christmas fabric.
Fortunately, I have quite a bit of Insul-Bright left from when I made a heat proof table pad, so I double layered the Insul-Bright, adjusted the tension, quilted it, and put the binding on with time to spare.
The hot pad was unwrapped and went directly on the table to replace a folded green tea towel!
Wow! That was fast! You can create like the wind blows! LOL! That is a super great last minute gift. Genius.
